As the recovery from Hurricane Sandy continues, the music world has joined in the relief effort. In addition to the "Hurricane Sandy: Coming Together" telethon featuring Bruce Springsteen, Bon Jovi, Mary J. Blige, Billy Joel, and more that raised $23 million on Friday, many smaller events and initiatives have been launched to raise money. Here's a list of several in the New York area:

The Knitting Factory in Brooklyn will host East Coast Relief, a show benefiting the Red Cross, November 8. It features Will Sheff of Okkervil River, Jean Grae, Holly Miranda, Jennifer O'Connor, Geoff Rickly of Thursday, Bird of Youth, and more.

Tonight, Brooklyn Bowl hosts a benefit for the Red Cross organized by Oscilloscope Laboratories, the film company founded by the late Adam Yauch. The event will include screenings of Oscilloscope productions Fight for Your Right Revisited (the Beastie Boys' longform music video) and the LCD Soundsystem doc Shut Up and Play the Hits, plus a raffle. Canned goods will be collected.

Long Island native Dan Deacon will donate proceeds from his upcoming New York shows, November 14 at Music Hall of Williamsburg and November 16 at Bowery Ballroom, to the Red Cross and Occupy Sandy. Read his note here.
